It can happen that a message is delayed, but then no UE is found for
such message, e.g., something is delayed but the UE context is deleted
in the meantime:
[02:23:16.320730] [NR_RRC] I [--] (UE ID 3 RNTI d2b1) Remove UE context
Assertion (ue_context_p) failed!
In rrc_delay_transaction() /oai-ran/openair2/RRC/NR/rrc_gNB.c:191
In that case, don't delay the message further -- all handlers gated by
this function will check for the UE context and abort the transaction if
not present.
It can happen that no PDU session can be setup (e.g., PDU session
already setup). Check that there is at least one before triggering the
message.
Also initialize bearer_req.gNB_cu_cp_ue_id early to avoid uninitialized
IDs (e.g., when no PDU session to be setup).
More compilation improvements
Mostly to decouple NR files from LTE headers.
At least in one instance, ulsch_input_buffer_array, using an LTE constant in
NR code was quite dangerous because the buffer in NR could easily be larger
than what the LTE constant foresee.
UE: Fix CSI RS Measurement
1. Fix regression introduced in !3834.
2. ZMQ has no interference or artificial noise so the interference plus noise
measured is always 0. nr_csi_rs_pmi_estimation() returns SINR as 0 if noise
is 0 which reports CQI as 0. This fix computes SINR if noise is 0 instead of
returning.
UE: Implement SUCI Profile Scheme A
This MR modifies the nrUE to support Profile Scheme A based SUCI generation as
outlined in TS 33.501 §C.3 Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme (ECIES),
this further extends SUCI generation, which currently only supports the NULL
Scheme.
Changes:
- Extend UICC structure for SUCI parameters.
- Add cryptographic primitives (Curve25519, X9.63 KDF).
- Add an abstracted function to transfer digit strings into their corresponding
BCD value.
- Updates SUCI generation to support Profile Scheme A.
- Updates NAS SUCI encoding to support hexadecimal cryptographic output in
addition to BCD encoded MSINs.
Notes:
When a configuration file specifies an unsupported Profile Scheme, the NAS layer
triggers a fatal error. This occurs either because Profile Scheme B is
unimplemented or the build uses OpenSSL < 3.0, which lacks Curve25519 and X9.63
KDF support, ensuring users are informed of the incompatibility. Support for
Profile Scheme B (TS 33.501 §C.3.4.2 Profile B) can be implemented at a later
stage using P-256-based encryption.
The implementation of SUCI Profile Scheme A was tested against Open5GS’s core
implementation. OpenAirInterface’s cn5G does not yet support Scheme A and should
be extended to include it in a future update.
This allows to compile physical simulators by compiling only tests with
"ninja tests". It fixes a regression.

hotfix for 4 layer mapping on aarch64
This hotfix fixes a small bug appearing on aarch64 in the 4-layer PDSCH mapping
function. It was an error in the original implemntation.
Extend UICC configuration parsing to provide: routing_indicator,
protection_scheme, home_network_public_key, and home_network_public_key_id.
Use the protection_scheme value to decide what SUCI Profile Scheme to
apply during SUCI generation. Add support for Profile Scheme A which
provides ECIES-based encryption using Curve25519 and X9.63 KDF as outlined
in TS 33.501 Section C.3.4.1 Profile A.
When a configuration file specifies an unsupported Profile Scheme,
the NAS layer triggers a fatal error. This occurs either because
Profile Scheme B is unimplemented or the build uses OpenSSL < 3.0,
which lacks Curve25519 and X9.63 KDF support, ensuring users are
informed of the incompatibility.
Split out to make a standalone NTN configuratio page that would be
easier to find. I only modify the headings in the new file and write an
introductory sentence of the tutorial, the rest is unchanged.
Integrate channel pipeline library with vrtsim with two acceleration
options chosen at compile time:
- threadpool if CUDA support is disabled
- CUDA otherwise
Added two versions of channel convolution and noise generation:
- accelerated via threadpool
- accelerated using CUDA
The main difference between this and previous versions of channel
convolution implementations is that these functions take a real-world
approach to input/output where both could be split unevenly over a set of
buffers, e.g. ring buffers used in vrtsim.
The CUDA-accelerated version only works on systems with unified memory, e.g. NVidia
DGX Spark or GH
